Tustin Ranch Elementary held its annual “Rocky’s Run for Technology” jog-a-thon on Feb. 22.

About 700 students participated in the event, named after the cool coyotes’ mascot Rocky.

The fundraiser surpassed its goal of $8,000, which the school plans to use toward a new digital marquee.

Hilarity ensued when Principal Dean Jennings raced a giant Weinerschnitzel hot dog through a makeshift obstacle course. The 9-foot sausage suit was loaned to the school as part Weinerschnitzel’s sponsorship of the event.
